The Mage Will Master Magic Efficiently In His Second Life

He was dressed in spectacular white armor.

It even radiated a tremendous amount of magic power.

This Its probably his familiar.I guess its similar to the way Ain can transform into Divine Greatsword Ainbelle.

The armor covered his whole body, and he wielded a katana in each hand.

This was something Id seen in books before. It was a type of armor worn by warriors known as Samurai.

Shiranui dispersed the curtain of smoke with just a light swing of his brightly shining katana.

His katana was wrapped in an unusually thick layer of magic power.

He probably cut through my spell with that thing, making it ineffective.

It was somewhat similar to Claudes White Flash. However, unlike it, Shiranui had specialized in dealing with spells.

If a weak spell touches that it will evaporate in an instant.Even though it seems easy, it probably requires quite a lot of skill in order to cut down a spell.So this is what the foreign countrys swordsmanship is like Its just as Elise said. It really is a sight to behold.Hes definitely someone Id like to get close to.

Whats wrong? Are you finished, magician? Shiranui asked in a boastful tone.

Even still, his eyes glowed with passion, and as he drew closer to me, he showed no signs of letting down his guard.

Good grief. Dont you think that going all out against a participant is kind of mean?

Hmph. I have no intention of allowing the princess to engage in combat with small-fry. Ill wipe out everyone right here.

Is that really okay? The Title Match is the highlight of the Heavenly Mage Festival. If you do something like that the Magician Association will definitely give you an earful.

I do not mind. This stupid festival that attempts to make our princess into a spectacle is uninteresting to neither me nor any of us! Shiranui replied, a nasty expression on his face.

Urohimes subordinates had sworn their loyalty to her and left their now distant homeland.

They only fought for the sake of their princess, ignoring everyone else, including the Magician Association.

This will be a tricky one.

Im done fooling around with your games. Prepare yourself. Shiranui said quietly.

Immediately after which he readied his katana, slashing it down at me.

If I were to presume that the katanas and that armor of his were his familiar, then that would mean that within this Isolated Space both of them would have received a tremendous power boost. In other words, it would be bad if I were hit by it.

I swiftly dodged the katanas sharp blade and immediately cast Time Square.

While time was stopped I cast both White Crash and Red Crash twice.

Quadra Spell Synthesis: Double Nova Crash.

With a booming sound, a while flame enveloped the whole of Shiranui.

The white flames wrapped around his armor just like a white snake. However, Shiranui managed to extinguish them with just a single swing of his katana.

That wont work.

Tsch!

While pulling away I cast Scout Scope on Shiranui to confirm his status, however, just as I had thought he hadnt sustained almost any damage.

If it was Milly, Id only need only one Double Nova Crash I guess that armor is also spell resistant Well, I guess thats to be expected.

I shifted my gaze back to Shiranui as he chased after me, and cast Time Square.

While time was stopped I cast Blue Crash, Black Crash and Green Crash.

Triple Spell Synthesis: Icicle Crash

As I cast the spell, ice began to creep up Shiranuis armor just like an ivy.

However, probably due to the effects of his armor, Shiranui didnt seem like he had taken any damage.

I should have expected as much. After all, Icicle Crash is a spell that mainly focuses on restrain, not damage.But as long as I can keep him in place that will be more than enough.

You cant stop me with this!!

Despite having his body held down by the ice, Shiranui continued to creep forward, peeling the ice from his armor.

As he did so I pointed above his head.

Hm?

Look up.

HUH?! Like Id look away with my enemy standing right in front of m

Before he could finish his sentence, Shiranui was flattened by the green ball that fell on top of him.

Good grief. Thats why I told you to look.

Triple Spell Synthesis: Triple Green Sphere.

With this Spell Synthesis, I was able to even further increase the volume and the weight of the already enormous Green Sphere.

However, because of that, its movement had gotten even duller. Which meant that it made it even harder to land a hit with it. However, by dropping it right on top of someone I managed to get rid of that problem.

An unmatched destructive power. Shiranui was completely flattened to the ground.

Ops. Did I overdo it?

No matter how strong his armor and bones maybe I guess it was still dangerous to drop it like that.

As I uncast the Triple Green Sphere I noticed Shiranui laying on the ground, twitching as his armor had shattered into pieces.

Well, at least hes alive.Thank god for that.

Y-You bastard

Whoa! Youre still conscious? Youre quite tough arent you?

I doubt hell be able to fight anymore but to think that hed manage to keep his consciousness after that attack. He really is something.

Well, I guess thats it for the match. You dont mind giving me the win right?

Tsch

Shiranui simply averted his gaze without saying anything.

I guess thats a yes.A foreign countrys warriors huhHe truly was a strong foe, however, not as strong as me Im afraid.

Shiranui somehow managed to lift his torso up, in doing so he also stripped his shattered armor.

Following which he crossed his legs, sitting down half-naked.

He then took out a small blade from somewhere and pointed it at his abdomen.

H-Hey wait! What do you think youre doing?! I yelled out.

LET GO OF ME! Useless bastards like me who would only cause the princess trouble have no right to remain in this world! He yelled out.

I immediately grabbed his hands, pushing them down and stealing the short sword.

T-That was close Was he really planning to die?!Ive heard that those foreign warriors often cut their own stomachs, but to think that it was actually true That seems quite dangerous.

Why wont you let me die

Calm down, would you? If you were to take your life over every minor thing, then even endless lives wouldnt be enough!

A life that cannot serve its master is pointless!

Hes not listening at all What a stubborn geezer.

As I let out a sigh I prompted Shiranui to look up at the top of the Soul Tower.

Standing there was Urohime.

She was looking down at Shiranui with a worried expression on her face.

Urohime-sama

Do you really think that your master would really wish that?

These people had followed Urohime, leaving their homeland behind, in order to protect her.

She had been living here with them all this time. They were probably nothing less than family at this point.

As I threw away the short sword from Shiranuis hand, Urohime looked at me and lowered her head.I guess thats her way of saying thanks.

As Shiranui saw that, tears welled up in his eyes.

Princess For you to lower your head for someone like me

Come on now, gramps, dont cry. I said, trying to comfort him.

Well, I guess from now on he wont do something that stupid again.

After calming down Shiranui I exited the Isolated Space.

I wonder how Millys match went Wait!If she managed to finish at around the same time as me, and if her opponent was the same as that geezer, then theres a chance that hed try to take his life as well!I must stop it!

It should be this way

They should still be fighting

I thought as I rushed to the Isolated Space Milly had been assigned to. As I arrived there, however, the match had already ended.

The one lying in the heart of the dust cloud was Milly.

Hey! What happened with meeting at the finals!Good grief. To think that shed lose like that.

I rushed to Millys side, lifting her up.

Are you okay Milly?

Urgh So strong

The person Milly had fought with was a normal, kind-looking old woman.

She was dressed in white and held some kind of wooden staff.

At first glance, she looked like someone youd let your guard down against, however, upon a closer inspection, her magic power was no weaker than Shiranuis.

That ghost thats lingering behind her must be her familiar.

I cast Scout Scope on the woman, being careful not to be found out.

Tomiko Gennai

Level 76

Magic Level

Red: 21 / 52

Blue: 40 / 40

Green: 12 / 32

Sky: 43 / 48

Soul: 72 / 72

Magic Power 1593 / 4152

Shes not your typical old woman all right However, shes also not an opponent Milly couldnt beat if she were to go all out.She really did let her guard down after all.

Hoho. Are you that girls boyfriend? I would advise that you treat her as soon as possible.

Like hell, Im her boyfriend. Good grief I said, a bit annoyed.

I immediately began casting Healing on Milly.

Shiranui Gennai and Tomiko Gennai eh.Are these two a couple by any chance?That damn geezer. How could he think about dying with his wife right here!

As I was thinking, I noticed that Shiranui had appeared out of nowhere and was standing before Tomiko with an apologetic look on his face.

Im sorry Tomiko

Oh my. Did you lose?

Its a disgrace that will be forever engraved in my heart. Shiranui said, bowing his head to Tomiko.

Tomiko, on the other hand, simply sighed and returned his stare with a blank face.

You dummy Were nothing more than ordinary subordinates. Its fine to trouble the princess once or twice. And the princess, herself, said that shed like to fight from time to time, dont you think this will be a welcome change of pace? Tomiko said, embracing Shiranui.

Im sorry for only causing you trouble Tomiko.

As I looked at both of them Milly suddenly shrugged her shoulders.

Zeph, we mustnt disturb them.

Youre right. Lets leave.

Milly was still unable to move, so I held on to her as we exited the Isolated Space.

So those two are a couple huh I actually kind of like things like that.

Really? Even though you just had your ass handed to you by one of them?

That doesnt matter! Shes cool after all! Milly said, pressing her body against mine.
